James Neal’s play will likely be the least of our consistency concerns down the stretch. He’s been there before and done that, within a period in Game 7 of a Cup, and by all accounts an excellent teammate on and off the ice and recently starting to warm up. He will find his spots and get some big goals for us when it matters most,
How the young defenceman perform as they start getting into uncharted territory for games played and a season windows down, and for some reason, maybe because of last year’s disastrous final 2 calendar months for the 3M line, is something I’m worried about. Ideally it should mean Bennett Neal and Janko may have more opportunity to pick up the slack, but we will see.
